Explore these questions to help determine which option might be right for you.
Yes: If you have worn hearing aids in the past, then you may already be familiar with how much hearing loss you have. Requesting an appointment would be a good next step.
No: If you haven't had hearing aids before, meeting with a hearing care professional in UnitedHealthcare Hearing's network is a great first step. Knowing how much hearing loss you have is a good indicator of whether an over-the-counter device could be an effective solution for you or if getting prescription hearing aids is a better option.
With AARP® AARP Hearing Solutions™ provided by UnitedHealthcare Hearing, you have flexible options to fit your needs and budget. Your cost may vary based on the type of hearing aid you choose, the features you prefer, and the level of support you’d like.
You can select from a variety of over-the-counter and prescription hearing aids—each offering different levels of technology and care. Whether you prefer self-guided online ordering or in-person care through a hearing professional in our nationwide network, you’ll be able to view upfront pricing and customize a package that works for you.
Not very: Working with a licensed hearing care professional will provide you with hands-on support from a hearing expert in your area. At your appointment, you'll have the opportunity to talk about your hearing options, have your hearing checked, review the results, learn about available hearing aids and get a recommendation for a prescription hearing aid.
Very: If you own a smartphone and are comfortable downloading apps, over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids could be a good options for you. OTC hearing aids can be purchased without and appointment or prescription and come with a companion app to finetune settings and access support. OTC hearing aids work best for individuals with self-diagnosed mild-to-moderate hearing loss, so if you have diagnosed hearing loss it will be best to continue using prescription hearing aids and working with your hearing care professional.
I'm somewhere in the middle: As an AARP member, you have access to a no-cost hearing exam and consultation. If you're unsure about your options or want help learning about hearing aids, meeting with a hearing care professional to begin with is a great way to start your journey.
No. AARP Hearing Solutions provided by UnitedHealthcare Hearing is open to all AARP members and does not require a health insurance plan to access the program discounts and perks.
Understanding your current hearing health is a great first step. You can start with requesting a no-cost hearing exam and consultation with a hearing care professional. If you're not quite ready to meet with someone, you can use this online hearing assessment for a quick look at your hearing health.
